Astha Ramaiya [Co-author] Shared the Journal Article - Published in Child Abuse & Neglect, June 2026

A new systematic review published in Child Abuse & Neglect examined the link between mental health and technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and abuse (TF-CSEA). Analysing 10 studies with over 25,000 participants across seven countries, researchers found that depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and prior trauma were consistently associated with victimisation. Crucially, the relationship appears bidirectional with mental health difficulties both preceding and resulting from exploitation; creating potential cycles of repeated harm. Perhaps most striking: traditional parental monitoring through technological surveillance showed limited protective effects. What actually mattered? The quality of parent-child relationships including, open communication, emotional warmth, and trust. The findings suggest prevention efforts should combine universal school-based programmes building emotional resilience with targeted support for high-risk youth, while parent education should prioritise connection over control. With 12.5% of children globally experiencing online solicitation annually, understanding these psychological pathways is essential for effective child protection.

Monitoring Tools

Dear Team

I am from Zimbabwe and work for a Trust which support orphaned children in very remote areas of Zimbabwe. Previously our work was to crowd source funds and look for these orphans and pay their fees. The work has grown now to all the 10 provinces in ZImbabwe and we have constant support from the business community and they want us to tell the impact and able to monitor and evaluate the work we have been doing. I am tasked to set up an M&E department and so far we have developed an M&E plan and it was approved. Now we need to develop the project monitoring tools for education and development projects such as fees payment leadership training, we also managed to set up Clubs in all these schools were we teach them leadership and life skill training projects and this is why I am looking for assistance in developming Monitoring and Evaluation.

Dear Solomon

Please find the CPET which I have used in southern African very effectively. It is a community participatory method of monitoring evaluation and gets children and community families engaged in the process of measuring the usefulness and success of the program and allows for course correction. Let me know if this method works for you! Good luck!

Happy to discuss your requirements further. I would also link you to our office in Harare; we have an M&E manager - Morris Charumbira - morris@restlessdevelopment.org

I would request you to shed some more light on what tools you already have. what are the elements of activities that your would like to monitor and the logical framework you may have for the project.

Dear Bayiwayi 

You may like to include gender and diversity indicators while monitoring, and  as Martha has said participatory methods of monitoring by children and participants

Vimala Ramachandran has used role plays of barriers to education and development of children which is followed by discussions that highlight areas for strengthening. I use stories on discrimination and then explore if there were any such experiences. 

Best 

Ranjani
